Hi All,

I'm wanting to know the best way to route a dial-up connection onto the
local ethernet.

We have an ethernet of IP's 10.10.10.0/255.255.255.0

What IP should I use on the dial-in at each end?  If I pick a number in
the 10.10.10. range wouldn't that be routed already as on the ethernet?
How can I route the connection so that the dialin modem will be visible
to the network, and vice-versa?  I'd like it's actual IP to be visible
if possible (say, another 10.something address)

I have it working at the moment using IPForwarding, which I think is not
a very nice way to do it, especially because it has inactivity timeouts
(which are a pain on telnet sessions)  I've been reading the docs on
route, and started to get my brain in a twist.

Cheers,
Josh Marshall.
